question about ai teamup selection

edited November 2014 in MPQ General Discussion
In the current pvp and I notice that the ai has
IM40 lvl 166 Balistic Salvo at 2 covers.

That isn't actually possible to that have character on your roster. So where is the AI getting its teamup from?
Is it getting it from the Teamups that player currently has?

    AI TUs are chosen "randomly" from all available TUs in the game. Although in another thread someone posted that they have found that TUs may be chosen "randomly" based on what team you have.

    No, they literally mean it's impossible to have a maxed 3* with only 2 covers in one of the three skills. A 5/2/5 IM 40 can only be max level 153, not 166.

    It's because the number of covers the team-up will have (2 blue in this case) is not related to the level of the character (166) for the team-up in question.

    I also believe that all of the team-ups seem to be 2 covers regardless of the character. Since hunting for it, I haven't found any with a higher or lower amount of covers.

    The level for the character is set based on the level of the rest of the opponents. So if your enemies are level 166, your enemy may have a level 2 team up on a 166 character. There is a catch though - the character can't go above it's star.png level cap.

    Playing around with this ( here's a thread about how they change based on your characters in PvE )on some super scaled nodes at the end of the gauntlet gives me things like:
    Level 321 icon_thor.png team, with a 2 cover level 40 icon_blackwidow.png Widow's Sting, then a 166 icon_spiderman.png All Tied Up, then a 166 icon_shehulk.png Settlement, then 166 icon_daredevil.png Equalizer.

    On another node I change my characters around and see more 300+ characters with team-ups of level 40 icon_yelena.png Lethal Recon, then 94 star.pngstar.pngicon_humantorch.png Inferno, then 166 icon_magneto.png Polarizing Force, then 166 icon_hulk.png Thunderous Clap. All with 2 covers to the skill.

    Skip back to the easy sub and play around against level 55 opponents, and then star.png team-ups will stop at level 40, while the 2&3 star.png ones will stop at level 55.

    Hope that helps.

    one could have a IM40 166 with 2 blue covers if he's boosted. So in theory you could collect such a TU during a match

    Nope. Once you're not in the buffed event, the cover will go back to normal levels. It's only the scaled up opponents in pve that get to keep their levels, like 395 Thor/Hulk or my 285 XForce.
